Adding managed files by dragging

You can add files to the Process Designer by dragging them from the file system and dropping them in the Files category of the Process Designer.


Procedure

To drag external files to your process application or toolkit:

  1. Browse your file system and find the files or folder that you want to add to your Process Designer project.

  2. Click the files or folders and then drag them to the Files category in the Designer. When you add folders, all the files within the folder are added as individual assets. All files retain their original names.

    You can also drag an image file from your file system and place it directly on a Coach that you are creating to simultaneously add the file as a managed file and design your Coach.


Results

The external files are now displayed in the Designer view in the Files category, and the files can be used throughout your current process application or toolkit.
